![Post-Fursuiting (how not to die) [The Bottle ep44]](/img/n.gif)
Saturday was my first day as a fursuiter. I made my own fursuit so it was more special to me. I have sociophobia and I am really scared of people watching me, but when I was inside my fursuit all problems were gone for that moment. I have never been so happy in my life. And I made many people smile. So big pro for me: you can be yourself and you can make people smile
Good job
Little BluBlu bro imma watch u if ur in a fursuit so......-.-
Little BluBlu, I didn’t know that was a thing, I think I have it, I’m always looking around to see if people are looking at me...
Just searched up what sociophobia is and I can relate
I think I kinda have sociophobia when ever someone looks at me for a while I feel really uncomfortable but if it’s someone I know and trust idc that there looking at me,if it’s for a few seconds I’m fine with it
One other con you didn't mention, harassment from unwelcoming public and that can lead to either you getting hurt or your suit being destroyed
13animerox - Ratches o jeez
One furry hugged my suit to death and broke my fursuit
con: when one of your favorite suiters stops making videos, lol,, :-P
lime roo fursuiter at least it was destroyed with love :O
333 likes wool
First :U
aww dang pocari beat us all
Pocari Roo who made pocari for you? (His suit)
Pocari Roo awwww, Pocari 😂😂😂

Today I made a cardboard head for fun and it's the first time I have made anything like this and I made a moving jaw too. It's pretty fun! I am too young to have a professional head but I can enjoy this while it lasts. My father likes it too! Just imagine a crappy cardboard head made by a person whose never made a head before and no eyes... yup...
When you said 'you can make someone's day' I thought you said 'you can make someone gay'. Like that's an ability I was not aware of.😂
no, that's actually just my superpower, sorry :P
Joah winkler it is
Strobes' butt makes the straight guys question their sexuality
I think that's a spell from Skyrim. Spell, illusion, turns the target guy for 5 hours. Costs 50 magika.
well there's another pro
That's why most furries are LGBT+
You defiantly have to be in shape with a quadsuit!
Definitely*
Omg it is unbelievable
So you don't have to be in shape
@@antikathy This isn't a spelling test-
I have a con for ya...

Lol
ASHAHAHAHA-
XD
EYYYY
Me: Fursuits are so awesome, they're like wearable art, plus you can mess around and entertain people! So much fun! 😁
Others: Ew, you want to wear a fursuit? Aren't those used for kinky stuff? 😝
Me: ... 😒
Jess McSkimmings that's so fucking true. I get shit for it at school all the time.
Well they are used for that Owo
I hate humanity
Я единственный русский Я единственный русский week yeah, but we just want to wear them to have fun lol.
Me: no u uncultured swines fursuits are used as masks to cover up the fact that we’re all dying inside (hence the fact that the furry fandom is so large) XD
Very informative! lots of really good points to consider, especially the one about having to eventually retire the suit.
I don't fursuit, but I do know that overheating can be a huge con. Especially during summer time, which often is when people like to go out and fursuit.
Just please stay hydrated babies!!! 💕
"but then theres the sweaty death trap that is my adezu head"
i spilt my milk laughing XD also sry if i butchered the name :3
sit in cup pretty sure you got it :D
Pocari actually looks amazing in red 😂👌
Yes she does also 100 th like on this comment!
She looks good in every color
Ripp - Tide (mostly blue)
9:23 Pocari said fursuits are like pets. I guess Fido needs a spot of bleach on that muddy fur *Fido screams in pain* OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH S***!
XDDD
Amour Moonlight ME
Amour Moonlight 😂😂😂
"Fursuits feel awesome!"
Me - "Ah yes, being inside a portable sauna in your wearable carpt, such awesome"
Jk, I need one lol
OMG I got my second Patron heart!
I feel so blessed to have a fursona whos main character trait is being sleepy so I don't have to spend so much energy being charismatic
Pocari releases a video at 3:38 A.M... (I'm in California)
Heck yes I'm staying up 12 more minutes to watch this.
Alex Randomkat lol me too
12 minutes and 21 seconds.
Actually 12 minutes and 5 seconds... I would rather get my sleep than watch the outro :P
Alex Randomkat Oh good choice.
Fursuit con:
Don't wear them when you've got even a little bit of a cold. I haven't been able to wear my suit in two weeks as just taking three steps OUT of suit robs me of all my breath and I'll be panting like I've been running for hours. I put my head on for a few minutes a few days ago out of stubbornness.....and then I ripped it off because I couldn't breathe Q-Q
Elope's fursuit heads have really good ventilation. They don't make paws or bodysuits though.
When I finish zipping up my suit, Im all out of breath😭
The first fursuit I made (my fursona, Sera, a partial), like Adezu, is also a sweaty death-trap. I wore 1.0 to London Comic-Con (I wasn’t brave enough to wear it to MEFCC, you get sweaty in even the lightest cosplay there). Overheated in about 10 minutes, but I did meet 2 lovely suiters and made someone’s day. About 6 months later I did a rap in 1.5 (even worse due to having a bigger muzzle) at my school’s talent competition. I took off the suit in between performances, and by the 4th and final rendition I had become braver and was jumping all over the stage for the 4 minute performance, by the time it was over I was half dead and gasping for air. Carve out the muzzle fellow first-time makers, just do it.
Pocari: I WANT MY SUIT NOW! WTF ITS TAKING SO LONG!
me: I only have $50... you know how long I’m waiting??
thanks for this video Pocari, loved this bottle episode, the Fursuit I borrowed from my friend is nearly 14 years old, it is ancient now but it still looks pretty good.
Pocari: fursuits at 86°F is low temperature
Me who lives in florida: *chuckles *
*Im in danger*
True man
I'm planning to go to a H O T place and I can relate 😔
omg pocari you are like one of my favorite fursuiters ever honestly??? i started watching ur content months ago and i love your WONDERFUL personality i love your voice and your character like soooo freaking much omg
i started making my first suit and were like,, gonna scrap it then you just like influenced in my decision lol rn im still making it yaaay
btw i have the urges to make you digital fanart like rnnrnrn //screamin g
Heyo since u made ur own fursuit (congrats!) do u know what kind of foam to buy bc i want to make my own but I have a hard time deciding on foam to use for the head and paws
9:21 Here's Pocari with your scheduled subtle reminder to BRUSH YOUR SUIT!
Lil too late for me, considering I'm midway paying off my first suit... lol!
This is super informative and I have more than a few people I want to show this video too lol
I found a maker that makes really cheap suits and is actually quite good at making them.
SleepyFurs Fursuit prices:
Partial: $300+
Plantigrade full suit: $800+
Digitigrade full suit $1,000+
SleepyFurs Fursuit part prices:
Head: $200+
Paws: $30 (Arm sleeves: $25+)
Puffy paws: $80
Feet: $100+
Tail: $30+
I may be getting a Artistic Liberty partial suit
I would definitely recommend looking at their past work before commissioning them. They definitely put in a good effort but the heads do appear to be just a bit lopsided, so make sure that it's not enough to bother you.
I really want to commission my character to be made into a suit, and I want to get the suit made by deerinahat but another con you didnt list, which kinda mixes in with waiting is having to wait for the makers to open for commissions
... This may be a little un related but seeing as this video is talking about fur-suits I've decided to make a list of the stores and the items i used to make my fur-suit.
Hobby lobby
-Foams
-hella bunch of glue sticks
-plastic buckram
Joann's fabrics
-quality fur
Walmart
-shoes
-PJ pants
-jacket
Keep in mind that if you are making your fur-suit you might want to use some tutorials and that different fur-suits may need different stores depending on certain fur colors or if you either don't have one of the stores where you live or if it doesn't carry what you need.
Also remember Hobby Lobby offers their 40% off coupon that you can use once a day {or bring a friend!} which helps a ton with staying in budget~!
*nod*
Thank you! I'm about to make one, I'm still working on the list lol.
@@moriaheastside2831 update, you don't want to use a jacket it gets really hot. I suggest you make your suit from scratch. This means making a ducktape dummy, and sowing a suit together. (i know it's work but its better than heat exhaustion.)
I’m making a suit head rn, it’s my very first... *so many hot glue sticks*
My fursona is very sassy and she isn't very active, she's more if a hip swaying that's it. Also I wouldn't sell her, she's my baby.
CON: We're not advanced enough for Pocari's fullsuit to double as a cooler that holds free drinks.
i got a question
even though I'm only 11 years old (and I'm not getting a fursuit right now because of that)
i still want to know my estimate prise of my fursuit
my fursona is a black wolf with black hair tipped in red and a long tail also tipped in red plus he also wears a white bandanna but i don't think that the maker will have to make that (I'll just buy it form somewhere) so yeah if anyone has a good idea of how much that is - wolfie
Doesn't matter if the person is under 20... Fursuits will always cost over $1,000
It depends,, do you want a partial? Full suit? Digitigrade? Plantigrade? Does your maker need a dtd? Do your research lmao
Welp, this is what I know about MadeFurYou.
Head only: 1500 to 2500 (markings, eyes, jaw, and other.)
Partial: (full only) 2500 to 4000 (markings, paws.)
Full plantigrate: 3000 to 5000 (markings, head, type.)
Full didgitigrate: 4000 to 7000 (markings, head type, type.)
My (2nd) fursona is a 6'3 (yeah, she is T A L L) gray female kolbold with a predator-like wrist-blade on her right arm. An interaction with her would go something like this:
She pulls out her wrist-blade as soon as you speak to her, hopefully you prepared your last will and testament if you approach her because she'll rip out your guts if you come any closer to her. On the battlefield well, she'll look something like the doom slayer in hell. She is meant to embody my temper in a way and how I have violent outbursts when I get irritated enough, and I talking punching the person irritating me Instead of yelling in frustration like most people.
My therapist is incredibly supportive of my goals to get a fursuit. We're hoping it helps my social anxiety being able to be masked as my best boy Juneberry
My first suit (mini partial) is going to be here in a few months. I watched this vid a bit late but with the heat down here I'm now even happier I splurged on some helpful extras.
A fursuit temp. in the 80's sounds quite comfortable for me XD
Except for if I was running around in one in the summertime in the desert. Then not so much...
I just finished my fursuit and went to a meet in it
when my mother came to check on me I was drenched in sweat
These things are HOT!!!!!!!
Number 2 happened to me, though it made my year! I saw people public suiting for the first time in my life!!! And I got to say hi to them in the car my mom was driving in. They said hi and waved back! Life changing UwU
One of the best parts for me is that since I'm making my own suit, when it's finished I get to wear my own artwork and express myself with my own creation. :)
"So if you dont like running, or sports, or moving in general, like me, fursuiting is a great way to get active" Me: "Now this sounds like a job for me"
im just going to buy the very extremities of my character first, so just tail, wings and ears, it will still be quite fun(not as fun) but it wont be hot, not very hard to transport and much cheaper than a full suit. one day i might get a partial suit but that wont be for a long time. :)
I’m 13 and my full body fur suit is coming in 2 months and I know about the lack of vision and breathing and drinking water, it doesn’t look that hard to walk in them and stuff but I still asked my mum to be my temporary handler 😂
Also I can’t go fur suiting in a park because there’s mean kids I know that go to my high school and they’re not nice at all…
Omg you look so good in red almost better then blue... almost
Um hello there
I’m making a piece fur suit which is head paws and tail, the price for the supplies was about 80$ for the fur and foam, and 20$ for the other stuff like wire and padding
And another con left out: the gods-forsaken vision...
tfw you fangirl over seeing your art in the background
I can be your angle,
or yuor devil.

"Fursuitibg is my exercise"

*fursuiting
Pro: god damn adorable pictures
I saw a dutchie at a pride parade last year. It was amazing cause I was just starting in the furry fandom and already saw an awesome suit!
2 years later and I'm actually considering getting a suit! When this first came out, I couldn't see myself and a fursuiter, but now im doing a bunch of research while I wait for my dream maker's new prices to be posted! Thx Pocari
Lol I was about to say like 86 degrees isn't really cold but it's not to hot either. I live in Houston and sometimes it gets up to 116 degrees and we still have fun.
I'm waiting for a head base for my quadsuit to arrive it's going to ship from Lithuania on the 20th September ahhhh I can't wait
I get hot really hard! I dont live in a hot area but i always wear a hoodie, in school, at home, outside, etc... so the only hard thing for me about fursuiting is that
I dont have one.....
I always love you're videos keep em coming
TheWorldOfFoxy your profile pic is so cute
crazie wolf529 thanks yours is cute to
TheWorldOfFoxy thx
1:12 you know what else is original artwork you can wear?
T-shirts
Tattoos
*Stapling a picture to your skin*
Hats
Con: Some kiddo pulling on you’re tail
Unless your fursuit has a stub tail or not tail at all.
Cuz I subbed I get notifications. Me and my bff loaf u and when u release a new vids. When I see my bff at school I tell her and then we run around the playground screaming POCARI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
If you don’t have room for ur clothes (idk if u already do this) but you can put clothes either in a bag then in the head or just put them into the head and paws,
:0 I haven't repaired my turtle in a while! I gotta take care of my pet

THIS IS TO EVERYONE WHO PAYS TOO MUCH FOR A FURSUIT:
i made mine out of lego's, if you add A LOT of joints and black or blue pins, it actually becomes very strong to carry and move around in. and it doesn't becomes hot cause... IT IS LEGO'S. btw, i just used mindstorms education edetion and its expention set (it was like mayby €600 or 640,23$) and i have a lot of bricks left. it will never burn down. i can add motors, sensors and programable stuff very easy. it is just head and tail. if i take the head off, i still have some cute little ears (i love them). I can fold them so that they only take like a square meter. i also DON'T NEED TO DO ANY CLEANING.
downsides:
it is too heavy (it is easily 10kg or 22 000 POUNDS) to wear for more then 2 hours and it is AN ACTUAL HELL TO PUT IT ON. I need to move in slow-motion because i will break the lego pins because of the presuere.
Pocari, you may have already answered this but where did you get your "cheat paws". I really want a pair
I've never worn a fursuit (I'm very new to the fandom, right now I'm just planning) but I can understand that the suit can get hot as Hell (not literally)
A definant con is bullying. That kind of goes under the "attention" section. Im surprised this topic isn't touched upon more. When getting a fursuit, be prepared to have people cuss and spit at you, and call you names and insult you. Sadly this is a huge issue. Its not as bad as it once was, but there are people who don't understand the community and hate furries because they don't understand them. Be SAFE! Ignore the taunts.
I love you bro, This entire Channel is the highlight of my Day man, i dont enjoy much Things. But i genuinely enjoy this So Much.
fursuit con:THE FREAKIN HEAT
Thanks for the tips Pocari and I LOVE your videos
I care about u! Not just your fursuit (thou pacari is amazing) I love your sense of humor and personality
Those are some interesting pros and cons.
I'm super happy because I had a fox with a rainbow tail and I got it for $1400
Realaising that I am furry by watching furry youtubers and starting to want a fursuit (>w
Awww yay it's awesome seeing my name in the patrons!
One Day I Was At A Park Then, These People Say "Oh No There's Frucking Furries Here"
I Was Like "Bro What Did Furries Ever Do? I Know Some Are Really Weird But Not All Are Like That"
(I Was In My Used To Be Oc Lime )
11:20 I’ve bin their before that’s next to the beach OMG 🤯
I'm making my own fursuit for the first time and I'm planning on being a small maker so my family can go on more trips and maybe move into a big house soon. I feel like making Pocari would be really fun and I would be so proud
Does anyone else have a maskimal like I do? Bc if u do I’m gonna give u some advice, DONT GO TO MIDDLE SCHOOL DANCES IN THEM! I went to the halloween dance in it and ppl liked it a lot, but o.m.g did it get hot in that thing quick. And I danced in it too! I had to keep taking it off and I kinda felt bad for breaking the magic so many times. But now I’m saving for a mouth mover mask (I ain’t spendin a lot of money on a fursuit when I’m still growing and can save more to get a higher quality one later)
Con: bullying. People are most likely going to bully you. It doesn't matter whether it's a full suit, partial, or whatever, they are STILL going to harass you about it. I have a small tail, and somehow, two kids in my art class found out, and are being jerks about it, saying "oh, look, it's the effing furry hahaha!" and stuff like that.
"There will NEVER EVER be a fursuit that looks like yours!"
Me: *sad boi sounds* unless someone steals it QwQ
Hey! I wanted to ask, what do you think a reaction to a 4"5 fursuiter? im 18 but im SUPER small! Do you think it's a good idea, or not?
Yeah! It's fine! Just tell whoever you commission if you do your age, so they don't get confused.
OmniverseAgent I think people would pick you up a lot, or think your cute and play with you. I bet you would make a good bunny though :P
i might get a preloved one now youve persuaded me
Have you ever thought of using a space bag for the body of Pocari, for con travel. It sucks the air out of the bag and makes the content smaller inside, don't worry though when you open it back up the content inside goes right back to normal without misshaping anything. I use them for my plush toys all the time, even for long period of time to make more space in my room and they always come back out the same way i put them in.
It just an idea though, thought it help to save space for you. There's people that do that for their suits, I plan on doing it myself when I get mine. I don't plan on using it for the head, I rather carry that personally.
If I meet you in real life I will legit cry lol
heres a con that might be a pro for some people it completely ruins your vision and other senses but the little pro is everything can be a suprise
I your furry(if your watching this you probably are) and you don’t have a suit and you don’t feel like your in the fandom well you can have fursuit props like tails,paws,ears , and etc have a great day you are awesome byeeeeee 👋🏼
0 dislikes! Nice one!
BaconLord now there is
I've tried on my friends suit and I can stand the heat pretty well, so I think I'll be ok :3
If you live in Canada or anywhere cold you don't have to worry much about heat
If you have money and live in a cold area you're set
(Of course you still have to clean it and stuff but you won't get as stinky)
My first and main sona was originally all black with yellow eyes then I added red to break the colour up
Making him myself and prepared for the cream carpet to turn black 😂😂😂
He's q mini partial currently but needs a serious upgrade
The other day I was driving uptown and then I saw a girl in an otter fur suit holding her head to her side
AnthroCon 2019, I will own a suit. Mark my words.
(Or at least be on a queue, I guess queues are unpredictable)
JakobyGames Did you get it?
You just made my Day ten times better By uploading. Thanks pocari QwA
Airlines "losing" fursuits
I can’t wait to get a fursuit and I only have 3 colors and it’s a bat dragon a candy corn bat dtagon
Waited until after I had a baby to make myself a form fitting suit because I knew my body would shift a lot
I have social anxiety, but when I wear fursuits, my anxiety diminishes. I can't wait until my fursuit head is finished!
yeah... imma just stick to my 1st idea when i started, making a non fursuit fox head, metallic fox head... but im still keeping the head design though
If I want to go to anthrocon someday, I would probably move somewhere close to Pittsburgh, so then it would be just a drive away
Sadly I wouldn't even be able to get any of this cuz we don't have that much money but what can u do?? :'(
hot and sweaty and heavy isn't a con for me. I play hockey for god's sake. I gotta lug all that gear around and play hard. breathing is an issue tho cause I have excersized induced asthma. I have an inhailer for that but it's a bit of a pain lol
Once I was walking down these streets with my family, and we went to a pizza place for lunch. During this time, I always hoped to see a furry one day. Suddenly outside, there it was. Someone in a fursuit. I yelled to my dad, "DAD THERES A FURRY I NEED TO SEE ITTTTT!!!" And he was like, "Nope srry m8 our pizzas here lol." I was just like ;-; and when we finished lunch, the furry was gone. I never saw one since. Except for TH-cam. BUT STILL T^T
7:33 'Oh, yay! I'm top of the queue'
I've been wanting a fursuit for about 6 months now and I'm going to get the stuff to make one next week
I'm making a head and paws cuz im a young furry when I get older I might get a full suit
Me as soon as a go to con with a fursuit:oh um attention
Everyone coming to me asking for a hug*
